Sunlight
Streams
And splashes
On eyes closed
To the world
Entrapped
In the beat
Of darkness
And light
And in between
Memories
Fade in
And out
Like the rhythm
Of life
The eyes
Open
And the world
Fades
Back in

A dream within a dream
About Me
- . : A : .
- There is a magic in the air that permeates through the very soul of my existence. There is a stillness in the night that floods my senses beyond my imagination. There is a madness inside of me that overflows in everything that I create. There is a past behind me that is overcrowded with memories that drain me out.

the feel of 'Entrapped' does justice to 'Memories'.
Nice!!! ... as always.
smiling that i lived a day more,
hoping that i will live a day more.
"of darkness and light and in between" -- moi fav :)

i don't know why but your poem reminds me of a gushing river in a forest; of sunlight-warmed, smooth pebbles by the river and huge leafy trees by the endless road.

It's all about cycles, isn't it? Sleep and wake, the seasons, love and hate, hope and despair, high and low tides (as Anil put it, bit keeps taking it away). Especially liked the last 2 verses.
I like the rhythm and circular motion of this poem. It is something we must listen to everyday.
geeeezzzz... i HAAATEEEE waking up!!! ;-)
am not a morning person at all... and now i know why! hehehehe
"And the world
Fades
Back in"
Interesting perspective - one generally hears of the world intruding/jarring us awake etc..."fades back in" is such a nice way to put it!
do you feel like this always? i it heart-rending and hopeful at the same time. a sense of timelessness floats in the words...
I agree with Anirudh.
This poem is one of those that may readily be seen, and felt, through either perspective (granted that these two are polar opposites)... depending on the reader, and, well, the reader's mood. ^_^
This reminds me of a beloved sci-fi/adventure hero proverbially coming "back to himself," ala Maximus in The Gladiator or Cruise's character in Minority Report. There's that surreal quality of filtered life.
Currently the world is fading out for me....I can feel the grip of sleep taking over, isolating me from what I beileve is life to what I never thought life could be a few days back...
cya.
"Memories

Of life'....so true,so powerful and simple
that is my favorit epiece of yours yet. it is simple but it speaks so thoroughly.
Beautifully written! :)
Makes me think of what happens between the time we fall asleep and wake up... dreaming!
